I'm so sorry about Bailey. It wasn't your fault, you didn't have to stay with her. Don't blame yourself sweetie, If she chooses to do coke, then she knows what the risks are and she found out the hard way. Maybe now she'll stay away from that side of things. Thinking of you, try to be strong. X

oh please don't blame yourself... i know it's hard not to, but... she's got to be a big girl. this is what drugs do to you. i had a friend die from an overdose two weeks ago. it is so easy to blame yourself and so hard to blame them because you love them. and it hurts so bad. but in the end, if someone makes these kinds of choices, they have to live with the consequences. and the consequences are scary and painful but they aren't your fault. hug <3

If you stay and watch, you're telling them what they're doing is okay. By walking away -- but later checking things out and checking up -- you're saying, as a good friend, that you don't approve of her ruining her life. You were strong for what you had to do, and I'm proud of you for that.

sweetie, it's not your fault, she made her own decisions. I know it's hard not to feel like you have a part in her outcome but for once you took care of you. She's an adult, and can make her own decisions. She chose to stay and tried to place you in a dangerous situation as well. I commend your strength and pray you don't tkae this out on yourself. I think you did well for your friend and self. If you didnt care for her, you would have left her and never looked back. take care sweetie. nice job looking out for you, you deserve it.

Gwen, I'm sorry about Bailey. Coke, as I'm sure you know, does bad things to people, leads to nightmarish situations, and can definetly ruin one's life. Despite what Joseph said, you did do the right thing by walking away from the situation. If you stayed with Bailey you would have been silently condoning her choice (even though you don't condone her choice at all). I'm thinking about you.
